Categories: Plugins, WordPress as CMS

CMS plugins for WordPress at wpthemesplugin.com – some of these are new to me – but not only do they seem well-suited for WordPress-as-CMS use, some seem well-suited for any blog with more than one author. From the post: More Fields. This allows you to add extra fields on the write/edit page, and can be [...]

Written by admin on August 20, 2009 - 0 Comments
Categories: Plugins

Srini’s WordPress Laboratory is where the Quotes Collection plugin was developed. It’s easy to use, comes with its own widget – just add content. It’s a randomizing quote rotator – but also lets you put the entire set on one page or in one post. I’m currently using it on a site I’m building for [...]

Cicero on the virtue of Handstands Insofar as we know, Cicero 1 never expressed an opinion about handstands. We’re using color to signal dummy copy within this post. The original image was 1024 pixels wide. Now, having adjusted the “medium” size for an uploaded image at 250 pixels, we can insert an image, select “medium” size [...]

SureLogos.com

Categories: Design Resources, Plugins

Came across SureLogos – which provides remarkably good identity work from $29 to $199. There’s a substantial variety within their portfolio, and a lot of work that I liked a lot. There’s a lot to be said – in the long run – for spending more money and time working through logos and identities. But [...]

clker.com WordPress plugin

Categories: Inages, Plugins

We’ll be getting to the clker.com plugin in a moment or two. You need to know that clker.com is an outstanding image resource – wide in its breadth and variety, often deep (many resources on a given subject), and high-quality images. So – with the assistance of one of the AIGA international symbols for “wait,” [...]

Categories: Plugins

Vladimir Prelovac – among other accomplishments, is the author of the Insights plugin for WordPress (download link) which creates an extra search box within the editing window. So – if we’re posting a list of something/anything – let’s say plugins – sort of abstract, but we want to signal that this post is in the [...]

  • Quote Rotator Plugin Comparison

    I wanted to install a quote rotator on the site I'm building for my friend, the military historian Alan Cate. So, below, in this sidebar, you'll (eventually) see all of these in action. I think we're up to five, and they're displayed in this order - but I plan to separate them so it's clear which is which (astute readers will realize that there is some overlap in the plugin/widget titles). These plugins are all excellent and usable - and I'm sorry if my limited skills haven't shown them off as well as they could be.

    From Unaligned Code:

    Greg Jackson's "Random Text"

    From Mr. Jackson's Pants On Head | Put Your Pants On Your Head! Mr. Jackson is very serious that you do this; while we can't insist on it, his certitude, his sincerity and his coding skills all make a persuasive, if not overwhelming, case. It's not clear, though, whether Mr. Jackson intends us to wear trousers on our heads in addition to, or instead of, the traditional on-the-legs arrangement.
